It sucks Burrows and Salo are injured, but maybe this will make them fresher for the home stretch...
I just hope they don't rush anyone back.

Willie Mitchell sent a resounding message to anyone willing to listen Monday.
Skating with several NHL players at UBC, the UFA defenceman wired a booming slapshot past the head of goaltender Martin Jones and shattered the glass behind the net.
Then moments later, while still sporting a giant grin on his face, he aimed again at the remaining fragments, finishing the job.
For a player whose career seemed to be jeopardy just months earlier, there's no better way to say “I'm back, baby”.
The hour-and-a-half session Monday was far from Mitchell's first venture back on the ice since suffering a concussion in January, having skated since early July.
I feel a lot more ready than I do usually at this time of the year," Mitchell said.
"I'm obviously flattered that a lot of teams are interested and fortunately enough, the main teams that are interested are teams that have a shot at winning it all and that's what it's all about." | Sounds like a guy that is motivated and wanting to prove himself...

Since when did Mitchell have a booming slap shot?
He's a stay at home defenseman, not a power play quarterback.

I don't know... I still think Kes would make a better captain even though he has some maturing to do IMO. He has the kind of personality it takes to set the tone and be a game changer. Nothing against Hank, we all know what he's proven last season, I just don't see it. Posted via RS Mobile |
